To spare us surprises so late in the game, please only commit bug  
fixes with accompanying tests. Again as Johannes mentioned, tests in  
the testfest repo do not count. They should go into php-src along with  
the actual fix.

@Steph: Where do we stand here? This item needs to be in full swing to  
be finished right now. Preferably before RC3, so that this release can  
also put the documentation to the test. If you need additional hands  
or cannot complete this by this weekend alone, we need others to step  
up and help out.

@Matt/Dmitry: Can you just give us the quick nod that all is well here?

@Nuno/Macus/The rest of the world: This issue is still open. If we can  
find a fix for this we are all comfortable with by Thursday evening, I  
would like to go ahead with RC3 next week. The idea being that this  
change needs to be validated a bit before its worth going into release  
mode and also re2c needs to put this change into a release as well. If  
not, then it just means we need to wait an extra week before we can  
look at releasing RC3 again.

We have identified another critical issue on windows. Pierre is in the  
process of validating the fix:
